Don't know of website, but Stedman's
GI/GU word book may be helpful. Endo notes are very easy. You could probably Google and find something.

Stedman's spell check does not work with 2007.
Tech support at Stedman's said that come Feb 28, 2007 they are releasing an updated version of their spellchecker and it will work with Word 2007. If you already have Stedman's spellchecker 2006, on Feb. 28 you can call with your registration number and they can give you an update in the amount $39.00 instead of buying the whole thing all over again!

Amazing site. You can build each room. Try different cabinets, colors on the walls, floors, furniture, drapes, etc. Fabulous tool for home remodeling or redecorating.
Subscription is cheap.. $9.95 for a week, $18.95 for a month, $27.95 for 3 months or $36.95 for a year. Well worth it. I used it to design my new kitchen. Check it out. Also, you get a free tour before you decide.

I just briefly looked at this, so I'm not sure if it'll help you, but search for mail encryption at http://www.howstuffworks.com. Hope that works. This is a great website for anything and everything!!

Check the IRS website.
If you owe money for the year after your returns are due, you'll probably have to pay some type of fine; however, if you don't end up owing anything or would get a return, you should be okay.

They have a lot of tips, word lists, etc.

Excellent on-line schools include M-Tec, Andrews, and CareerStep, and you'll find the Schools board right under the Medquist board.
Stedman's Med Dictionary and Stedman's Med Spell checker are two different programs. Which on
do you have? If it is the medical dictionary, as far as I know it is only a reference software and can't be used as a spell checker.
If you have the spell checker, go into Word. Click on Tools, Options, and then Spelling & Grammar tab. Then click on the Custom Dictionaries button about half way down the window. This will open a new window that lists your available dictionaries and one should be checked. Mine is checked next CUSTOM.DIC (DEFAULT). There is an ADD button to the right. If you click it, you will be able to browse for your custom dictionary.
Hope that helps.
I have only used Stedman's. What are some differences in Dorland's and Stedman's?

Check at a local nursery/garden center for varieties that are bred for your area, then check online

Check the connections from where the cable originates to wear it comes into the house. Also check t
had a similar issue with TWC and they had done some upgrades and the modem I had was no longer compatible. The tech knew what the problem was the minute he saw the modem, only it took me about 3 months and threatening to cancel for them to get out here.
No brainer here. Stop payment on first check before you issue 2nd check.

I have had a check bounce over a boo-boo in the check book...NOT A DEADBEAT!!

DID you check with Social Security& does your son receive a check???
Go to SSA.gov and research the payee options. You may have to use the search engine, but your answer to this particular issue should be there.
I am disabled and while my kids were minors, I had to fill out a form each year on how I, as the payee spent each and every penny of the money they received. I don't see how his mother can justify how she spent his money for things that you normally would pay.
That said, he is getting Social Security right? Is your son receiving a dependent check? Under law, if a parent is disabled and has minor children, each and every one of those children also receive a check until they turn 18 or graduate from high school, which ever comes first.
The check is a percentage of your husbands, so for 800.00, your son should receive at least 350.00. If you have not been getting this, they would pro-rate it back to when your husbands disability started and that in itself, could solve a lot of your financial problems. You can also find this out on their website, HTH
no - don't check out wildblue. check out hughesnet. sm
i was on wildblue. i absolutely HATED it. i paid $400 for install and equipment and bill was $51.51 a month for smallest plan. no bills, had to be direct debit from credit card or bank. wasn't a lot faster than dial up and i frequently went over my download limit so i had to upgrade to the $80/mo plan. speed was no faster on their "fastest plan". they had a 1-yr contract and only 1-yr warranty. well 20 days (kid you not) out of warranty my tria (the eye on the dish) went out and it cost me a total of $275 for replacement and tech call (had to wait a week and a half before tech could come and then he no showed and rescheduled for the next day stating he didn't have the equipment he needed to fix me and the repair order had been in for over a week by that time. no call to say he wasn't coming either, just no showed). they TRIED to sell me the entire package all over again to get me locked into another 1-yr contract and i declined. it was best in their book so your warranty and equipment would be "new". i had to tell them for 5 months to change which credit card to debit from, never could get it right. had to tell them for 3 months when my phone number changed. i could not wait until the day my 1-yr contract was over. have heard really good things about hughesnet. i think it is a tad more a month, but supposedly a lot faster than wildblue and not near as many problems from what i have heard from others. wildblue was down for an entire week at one point throughout the year i was on it. always got lost signals and page cannot be found multiple, multiple times throughout the day. i used wildblue with VPN (with transtech) and could not keep a connection enough to get a decent line count as i was dropping signals too much and it did slow it way down. i finally got clinic work rather than acute care where time and speed wasn't a factor. research message boards for complaints about wildblue and hughesnet before deciding. also hughesnet i think told me a 2-yr warranty rather than only the 1-yr with wildblue.
Check the classified board here and check
E-bay. Some companies will provide them for free or a small rental fee.
Stedman's is the best IMO. I don't know if they
limit your installations or not. I know on the new electronic word books they limit you to 2 installations and that it doesn't work if you copy it from one computer to another, it has to be installed from the original.
I should add, if you have Stedman's
If you have an updated Stedman's spellcheck, it will flag the drug if you type it incorrectly and the top suggestion is usually the correct way of typing out the drug name.
stedman's
They do offer you a 30 day trial. After that, it is $38.95/year. Which isn't bad, but I don't want to pay for the service if they don't change the reports. Definitely check it out!
Stedman's
I love anything Stedman's myself. I have Smartype and love it after about a year. I figure it's cut my Keystrokes by 1/3 to 1/2. It wasn't compatible with Word 2003, when I bought it, but that didn't matter to me since my company requires 2001.
Stedman's
Thanks to you both. I searched program files and there is a Stedman's folder that came up, nothing really in it except for maybe what looks like an uninstall file? In Word, custom dictionary is checked but I don't see anything about Stedman's anywhere in there. Anyway, I tried typing a little and it looks like it's picking up drug names etc. so guess it's working. I just thought I'd be able to pull up the program from my Start menu for some reason. I guess it just kind of stays hidden in the Word background somehow? Anyway, thanks for the help. I know it sounds really dense, but haven't had to use it before for work!

Here's some ortho reports http://www.mt-stuff.com/orthopedics.html
Stedman's Ortho & Rehab words is a great reference and includes sample ortho reports in the appendix http://www.stedmans.com/product.cfm/477/79
Well, I use Stedman's (sm)
Endocrinology book and Opthalmology book. Relatively small books, compared to the Neuro book, for example, but they are very helpful. Think I bought them used through an Amazon.com bookseller. Make sure you get the latest versions.
Hope this helps.
Is it Stedman's? nm

Stedman's.
Does anyone know how to get Stedman's
spellchecker to work in WordPerfect too. Thanks for any help.
Stedman's has it set-up where you have
to have the disk. You can't copy from one computer to the next, it must be installed. You can buy it for $99 I think and download it from Stedman's site . They don't like people reselling the disks either, so you can only get 2 installs before the disk won't work, though sometimes you can call them and they may give you another download.
Stedman's
I have Stedman's Spellchecker Plus '08 on my Word 2007. I got it from Barnes and Noble for $71, but that was with my member discount and a 20% off coupon. If you have any coupons for them, I would use them for this purpose. Their member discounts are good too.
Hope this helps you.

When you go into your Stedman's tool bar, you'll see options for modifying a Smartword spelling, Modifying a position, etc. I've moved some words that were programmed to come up 8 or 9 in the selection bar to be either the one that comes up on the Smart Line or #1 or #2 in the selection list. The instructions are fairly easy.
For instance "undergoing" was way down at the bottom of the list, so I moved that one up closer to the top. I made "complains" the first option rather than "complain" since I use that word more. That way all I have to do is hit the space bar and keep going,
Does any of that makes sense? My sleep pattern is all messed up, so I"m not sure if I'm entirely coherent right now.
Yes, Stedman's it is, also for me!...
The electronic version!
Also Stedman's Abbreviations and Acronyms...
If you're looking for Stedman's books - sm
Check out the equiptment forum - I have a set of 21, practically brand new books for sale.
Stedman's 4th edition is even better...
than the 3rd. It's true there may not be every single radiology term in Stedman's, but I don't know of ANY reference, text or electronic, that has every know term. For any book on ANY specialty to have every conceivable term is impossible - unless we want books 10 feet thick.
I know you cant use stedman's program
I use Shorthand as it works with just about everything.
Disappointed with Stedman's
If you mean the big purple "Medical Terms and Phrases" by Stedman's, I'd go with the other one.
I bought this and am rather disappointed with it and have not found it to be helpful on the job.
Stedman's @Work
Has anyone suscribed to this? I noticed they have an abundant amount of sample reports, but I am only considering suscribing if they add new reports on a regular basis. If anyone has info on this, I would love to hear it!
Stedman download sm
It is very simple and they remind you each day you have X days left, 10 in all. They don't list a price but I am told it is $179, don't know. Works very well but they should post their prices.
I use Stedman's as well as the Internet. nm

I do ops primarily and can't do without my Stedman's sm
Med/Surg Equipment Words. Sometimes, though rarely, I'll need to refer to my Surgery Words book for body parts. (I have 30+ years' experience.)
Stedman's Spellchecker
I know this is probably a silly question, but..I loaded Stedman's Spellchecker on my computer awhile back but have never used it. Today I was looking for it on my computer and can't find it. Should it come up under program files on your computer? or does it just combine with spellchecker in Word somehow and not show up on its own as a program? I thought maybe someone here who uses it could point me in the right direction. Is there some way you can make adjustments to it or is just part of Word after you load it? Thanks much for any help!!
Do a search for Stedman's (sm)
there should be a stedman's folder and your spellcheck should be in there. Hope this helps.
stedman's editions
is it worth buying the latest 2004 stedman edition vs. a 2002 edition. I debating on getting one for the GI and GU book. Wondering if a nephrology transcription can let me know if there's such a difference among the two. Thanks
stedman edition
u dont know how much i appreciated this bit of orientation. I just started my first oficial transcription job at a nephrologist office. I'm so proud of myself after trying in within two years to KICK my foot in the door. This week has been tough but I'm learning and quickly catching on. I just cant wait till I can effortlessly fly through my reports. Thanks for the advise. I will purchase my book through ebay tonight.
thank you again,
rookie
Does anyone use Stedman's Smartype?

Stedman's spellchecker
How often do you update your spellchecker? I bought a Stedman's spellchecker almost a year ago (2006 version) and I received in the mail information about updating to 2007. I am not sure if I should update yet or not. TIA
Stedman's rock!
There are different specialties, but the Medical Speller put out by Stedman's is definitely a must-have.
Stedman's & Vista
Does anyone know any tricks to get Stedman's OB-GYN Electronic Word Book to load onto Windows Vista?
This is the only Stedman's book that I cannot get to load on Vista. I contacted Stedman Support, but they said that it just isn't compatible. I find that hard to believe, as all of my other 21 electronic word books from Stedman's loaded just fine.
Any know of any tricks to get it to load?
